Chapter 121: Chapter 80: Cultivation Technique (3)
Zhang Chen was filled with longing upon hearing this. How incredible must it be to meditate at a glance?
"But you, boy, don’t even know a single big character. Don’t even think about it. Even if you had decades, you’d never reach entry-level." The Fox Spirit openly mocked and scorned him.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Chen’s face darkened. He ignored the Fox Spirit and turned his gaze to his Golden Finger Interface.
He stared at the pattern for eight hours without feeling anything; he knew his talent wasn’t that high, but who cares when he has a Golden Finger?
Not having enough talent isn’t a problem as long as the Golden Finger is powerful enough, right?
Zhang Chen glanced at the Golden Finger Skill Interface, only to find it unresponsive with no intention of recording any skills.
"This is tough!" Zhang Chen closed the Golden Finger Interface, showing a hint of awkwardness. But with the pattern right in front of him, he couldn’t give up!
Moreover, the pattern was indeed complex. The lines might be easy to remember, but those over ten thousand strange symbols were nearly impossible to record.
Usually, it’s challenging enough for people to jot down a few Chinese characters and words, let alone such a multitude of bizarre symbols?
However, Zhang Chen wasn’t in a hurry. After all, he had caused such a commotion outside, and Zhang Chen was sure to report to the authorities. He could hide here to weather the storm and leave in ten days or half a month.
As for his stepmother, those dried meat and clear water, if rationed well, were enough for two or three months.
"I just don’t believe it!"
Zhang Chen grabbed a torch and stood in front of the stone wall, his eyes fixed on the pattern, desperately trying to remember those symbols.
One torch burned out, then two, three, four...
Over and over, Zhang Chen recorded the symbols, and when the torch reached the seventh one, the crystal core in his heart shook slightly. At that moment, Zhang Chen felt his body start to heat up again, with the crystal core emitting a strange wave. Suddenly, Zhang Chen felt the air change before him and his vision seemed to expand, allowing him to see the microscopic world, the trajectory of dust in the air, the arrangement of atoms in matter.
As he looked at the stone wall pattern, the crystal core within him pulsed with his gaze, drawing the orange Qi Mechanism from the stone wall. In the next moment, the orange glow on the wall shimmered before flowing like water into Zhang Chen’s eyes. He felt a vague flickering in his mind, as if something inexplicable had appeared.
With Zhang Chen’s thoughts, an image suddenly appeared in his mind. It felt as though his mind contained a scroll identical to the pattern on the stone wall, with no missing symbols or mystique. Even if he left this place in the future, he could simply visualize the "Heaven and Earth" scroll in his mind for cultivation.
"This is interesting!" Zhang Chen’s heart was ecstatic. It seemed that his crystal core was rather extraordinary.
"Hey, fool, look quickly! Look here! What’s happened to the stone wall ahead? Look at what happened to the stone wall before you!" The Fox Spirit suddenly shouted at Zhang Chen, snapping him awake. He quickly turned towards the stone wall, and the next moment he was stunned. The entire stone wall had turned to dust, scattered on the ground, revealing a stone chamber in front of him.
Zhang Chen looked at the stone chamber behind the wall, suddenly alarmed: Could it be the vanished Empress Tomb has appeared?
